The 2024 visit of our bishop, Sayedna Silouan to St Aidan's

On the weekend of 23rd / 24th November, our bishop, Sayedna Silouan visited the parish and ordained Edward Bennigsen and Simon Aradom Subdeacons together with Daniel Polson and Aaron Malloy Readers. The bishop also gave the faculty to Father Daniel to hear confessions. After the Liturgy we had a beautiful fasting meal made possible by the usual generosity of those many church members who every weekend bring food to share. After the meal we met in a combined Open General Meeting and Parish Council with the bishop in attendance. We made important decisions on increasing the building's capacity for our growing (increasingly young) community and adopting a fairer and more accurate calculation of clergy salaries. The meeting concluded with the bishop's blessing after a wonderful weekend shared with him. Here is the photo album: https://tinyurl.com/bishop2024
